Very clean install and looks like perfect use of roof space. What did you select for a charge controller? MPPT or PWM? Batteries type? Did you wire panels in series or parallel?
Any tips after a couple years of use?
I used a Blue Sky MPPT controller but have had a little trouble with it cycling between float and absorption. Which is odd because I have used them before with good results. For the small extra money you might as well go with MPPT. Definitely wire them in parallel, to reduce the effects of shading. I use Lifeline AGMs, properly cared for they will give you 10 years useful life.
Park in the sun :).
